26th Annual WHA Bike Ride a Success

The 26th
Annual World Hunger Auction Bike Ride was held on June 6. The weather was perfect (after a long week of rain), and the bikers were enthusiastic. A total of 48 riders
raised approximately over $6,000 to be combined with the amounts raised through the
other activities. While some of the participants are associated
with the churches that sponsor the auction, many were from the Franklin
Freewheelers bike group in addition to their fellow riders from
neighboring areas. The auction steering committee appreciates the
work of the organizers, support vehicle drivers, rest stop staffers, and
members of the community who provided encouragement and refreshments.
